Plisson 1808 Briar and Chrome Finish Shaving Brush - “High Mountain White” Fibre - Joris

DESCRIPTION

This magnificent shaving brush has a sumptuous combination of the red vein of the briar wood pieces and the shine of the chrome finish. Each slice of this precious species is unique and carefully selected to make your shaving brush an exceptional personal accessory that you can keep for years. 

The briar is a small, white-flowered, medium-sized shrub from the Mediterranean region, which can grow up to 4 metres high depending on its environment, and 40 to 60 centimetres wide. It is a light and manageable species, often used in the manufacture of wooden pipes.  

The briar wood is worked in such a way as to ensure a pleasant and ergonomic grip and the removable head of the shaving brush is lined with a synthetic fibre imitating "High Mountain White". Resistant, hygienic, supple and extremely soft, this fibre allows you to obtain a creamy shaving foam thanks to its emulsifying power. 

Made in France and handmade by our craftsmen, this shaving brush is perfectly adapted to sensitive skin and to the vegan lifestyle. It is an iconic shaving accessory, ideal for fans of beautiful wooden objects.  

HOW TO USE IT

1/ With the shaving soap: Wet your shaving brush lightly with warm water and make subtle circular movements on the soap placed at the bottom of the bowl, until you obtain a creamy lather. Be careful not to damage the shaving brush during this step. Then, still using circular movements and on wet skin, apply the foam for 1 to 2 minutes. This action tones the skin, softens and straightens the beard hair, which makes shaving easier.

2/ With shaving cream: Wet your face and subtly moisten your shaving brush with warm water. Then, place a small amount of cream directly on the hair, in a shaving bowl or on each cheek and spread it for 1 to 2 minutes, always using circular movements to create an emulsifying reaction and prepare the skin before shaving. This will stimulate your skin, straighten the beard hair and create a smooth, moisturising and protective lather. 

MAINTENANCE

To remove any traces of cream or soap, rinse your shaving brush with warm water after each use. Squeeze the bristles between your fingers to remove moisture and then gently rub them on a clean, dry towel before storing the shaving brush upside down in its holder.
